How is this done

[John Dickinson]

Yep most likely Shine. The fast moving glints look like they are using Starglow. You can create these glints using blurred duplicates of the text and animated masks, then apply Starglow over the top.

also here is my starglow recipe if you don’t have it:

1. Duplicate the footage. Add hue/sat to it. Use this to pull out all the saturation. Then add a Levels. Crush down the blacks and gammas agressively. Then clip the whites a bit. The point being, you don’t want to see greyscale anymore, you just want the very brightest bits to be white and everything else black. Add a Gaussian blur to this layer. Except make the blur horizontal only. Now crank the blur waaay up. Now add a glow effect. Change the glow colors to hues you like.

Now Duplicate this layer with these effects on it. On the second layer, change the gauss blur to be vertical-only instead of horizontal.

Now set these two additional layers to SCREEN transfer mode. Now you have a starfilter effect on only the lightest parts of the image.

For the glint, you can use a duplicate, slightly-Blurry layer of the words as a matte for a layer above the words. It should be a blurry stripe or circle, and you just animate it over the words. It will only show up on the words, and nowhere else (not on the BG becasue it is matted out). use the add transfer mode to make the letters brighter from the layer moving around.

After you have done all of this, Instead of shine (which is a the best of it’s kind) you could also use CC Lightburst to create the same shine effect, but it’s slow….
